Footage: Dr Abdullah al-Muhaysini, who is considered a 'spiritual leader' of various Syrian rebel groups, releases a long speech on the group "Islamic State (IS)" titled: "Why did they call them Khawarij?". English subtitles are embedded.

The Syrian Government is claiming to have control over the town of Ma'ardas after having allegedly expelled Jund al-Aqsa from the town located in Northern Hama; however, pro-Syrian rebel sources are claiming otherwise and they claim that the rebels have repelled the attack on Ma'ardas and that the rebels had killed more than 10+ Syrian Government fighters and had destroyed several Syrian Government vehicles by ATGMs whilst doing so. The situation is, therefore, unclear. North Hama.

A Jund al-Aqsa source is claiming that Ma'radas has not been recaptured by the Syrian Government but that the Syrian Government had attacked with a large convoy and are currently clashing with Jund al-Aqsa within Ma'radas' outskirts.

According to Hama activists, Jund al-Aqsa and its allies were on the outskirts of the town of Khattab after having captured several key checkpoints; however, Jund al-Aqsa and its allies did not enter the town for they had suspected an ambush or an attempt by the National Defence Forces and their allies to encircle them.
